DVI & HDMI are digital formats, everything else is analog. With analog you get "a picture with loss." All analog has loss. More expensive analog devices and cables usually have less loss. With digital you get EXACTLY what was transmitted, EVERY time. Cost is meaningless; you either get a PERFECT image or you don't. The difference is most dramatic when you have a fixed-pixel display, such as a DLP, DLP-RP, LCD, or LCD-RP. In that case you usually get the EXACT image that was received (sat/cable/OTA) or stored (DVD) displayed on your set. Your image will look better than a guy with $6000 dvd player, $1000 component cables, and a $15,000 plasma.
Digital rocks.
